One At Rest - Unknown

Think of me as one at rest,for me you should not weepI have no pain no troubled thoughtsfor I am just asleepThe living thinking me that was,is now forever stillAnd life goes on without me now,as time forever will.

If your heart is heavy nowbecause I've gone awayDwell not long upon it friendFor none of us can stayThose of you who liked me,I sincerely thank you allAnd those of you who loved me,I thank you most of all.

And in my fleeting lifespan,as time went rushing byI found some time to hesitate,to laugh, to love, to cryMatters it now if time beganIf time will ever cease?I was here, I used it all,and now I am at peace.
